Enve SES 4.5 TDF Special Edition Disc Brake Front Wheel

Wide, light and fast, ENVE’s SES 4.5 TDF Special Edition Disc Brake Front Wheel is a thoroughly modern choice for high-performance riding and an excellent balance between weight and aerodynamics. This limited release celebrates the world's most famous race, featuring exclusive Tour de France graphics on the rim, and also comes with a spare set of white graphics so you can customize the look to perfectly match your bike.

Optimised profile for stability and cornering support

The huge internal width of 25mm really allows any tyre’s volume to be fully exploited and the rim’s blunt, hookless edge reduces the potential for any pinch punctures. The width also means that the tyre’s sidewall is very well supported when cornering and that the junction with the rim becomes nice and smooth for better airflow. The 50mm shallow front rim depth is specifically designed for improved crosswind stability and responsive handling. Tested at 32kph (20mph) as well as 48kph (30mph), the results show that amateur riders can still gain a significant advantage without having to maintain professional-level speed.

Premium hub performance and lightweight construction

Sapim CX-Ray spokes lace the rim to ENVE’s own Premium Road Disc hub, featuring full stainless steel races and great weather sealing so that contamination and corrosion are prevented. The Perfect Preload system means that the hub will run smoother and faster for longer with less maintenance required. Weighing just 662 grams, this 700c tubeless-ready front wheel combines a 32mm external width with Center Lock disc brake mounting and a 12x100mm thru-axle, optimised for minimum 27mm tyres.
